Why are German films often so formulaic even though Germany is a European culture? I love them but they follow formula very closely like Hollywood. What are the best German films?

Berlin - Sinfonie einer Großstadt

Das Haus in Montevideo

In jenen Tagen

Why do women need to wear bras, in spite of the fact that the breasts are an integral part of the body?

And many I can't think of at the moment.

Metropolis

Didi - alles im Eimer

Do you ever feel like you are doing good, but would do better if people hadn’t blamed you or even bothered you? I have gotten lonely, but I always am up to something (creating my destiny).

Besides these, there are some really good children's movies: More recently, the Bibi und Tina series as just one example. Looking back into the 80s and 70s, as well as into the present, I would even say that movies for children are what the German Film industry excels at. There is much less screaming and cake throwing and slimy monsters and much more discussing of matters that affect children in real life (even in phantasy plots) than in most US children's movies as far als I know them. The GDR was particularly well known for excellent children's movies but the west was and is good at it, too.

Es war eine rauschende Ballnacht

In Wirtschaftswunder times, most Western German movies were junk but the GDR produced some very good ones, e.g. Western movies and Spur der Steine; in the 70s Paul und Paula. I definitely recommend both!

Do you agree with Michael Moore that Donald Trump is "toast" in a political comeback?

Zur Sache, Schätzchen (and its sequel)

Man spricht Deutsh

I have seen some very good German movies. It is not that they don't exist, but they hardly ever achieve much fame. Especially since people have been accustomed to the dominance of US popular culture.

Why don't we hear our own snoring?

Here is a list of some (by no means all) German movies that are considered Classics (and a few that should be, in my opinion):

Lola rennt

Nackt

I listened to Kamala Harris speech she gave in North Carolina. I support 100% of what she said. I am more and more in favor of a Kamala Harris presidency if Biden becomes unable to be our president! Do you find yourself supporting Kamala Harris now?

Die Feuerzangenbowle

Es geschah am helllichten Tag

What is of absolutely horrible quality is the “movies” that are produced for TV. They are famously bad.
